## Fixed Size Columns - With `element_justification` Generally speaking, PySimpleGUI likes it when you don't force sizes of things to be a specific number of pixels. Instead, it's suggested that you make things "float", to size themselves. The `Column` element supports setting a specific size for the Column, however, the use of the paramter `element_justification` does not work on these fixed size Columns. Instead, another approach is needed. Two options are (there may be more of course): 1. Use a `Frame` element 2. Instead of `size` parameter, use a `Sizer` element ### The Frame Solution The easiest approach is to use a `Frame` element instead of a `Column`. If using a `Frame` element, then setting a fixed size works with the `element_justification` parameter. In order to get the vertical alignment the easiest solution is to use the `VPush` element above and below the layout. This will "push" from the top and the bottom with the result being that the layout is centered vertically. ### The Column Solution The way to get both a fixed size Column and have the interrior be able to be justified is to use a little-known "helper element" called `Sizer`. This element simply adds space in horizontal and veritcal directions. The implementation of it is that it's simply a Column with padding added. To help you use these, this demo was created. It makes a "User Defined Element" (a function that looks like an element and can be used in layouts) that acts like a Column that enables you to have both a size and an element_justification parameter.
